Yield Makes 10 to 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

Crust
1 1/2 cups all purpose flour
1/4 cup sugar
1/2 cup (1 stick) plus 1 tablespoon chilled salted butter, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
2 tablespoons (or more) chilled whipping cream
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
Filling
3/4 cup whole almonds (about 4 1/2 ounces), toasted, cooled
3/4 cup hazelnuts (about 4 ounces), toasted, husked, cooled
3/4 cup walnuts (about 3 1/2 ounces), toasted, cooled
3/4 cup light corn syrup
1/4 cup (packed) golden brown sugar
1/4 cup (1/2 stick) salted butter, melted, cooled
3 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon almond extract
1 cup semisweet chocolate chips

Steps:

  • For crust:
  • Combine flour and sugar in processor. Add butter and cut in, using on/off turns, until mixture resembles coarse meal. Add 2 tablespoons cream and vanilla extract. Using on/off turns, blend until moist clumps form, adding more cream by tablespoonfuls if dough is dry. Gather dough together. Press dough over bottom and up sides of 11-inch-diameter tart pan with removable bottom. (Can be made 1 day ahead. Cover and chill. Let stand at room temperature 30 minutes before filling.)
  • For filling:
  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Combine all nuts in processor; chop coarsely, using on/off turns. Whisk corn syrup, brown sugar, and melted butter in large bowl to blend. Whisk in eggs and vanilla and almond extracts. Mix in chocolate chips, then nuts. Transfer filling to prepared crust.
  • Bake tart until firmly set in center and top is deep golden brown, about 50 minutes. Cool tart in pan on rack 30 minutes. Push up pan bottom to release tart. Serve warm or at room temperature.

The tart was a little dry, but the flavor was good. I think I'll try adding some more butter to the crust next time.

This tart is a bit too sweet for my taste, but I think it would be perfect for someone with a sweet tooth.

This tart was a waste of time and ingredients. It was bland and flavorless.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my tart didn't turn out as pictured. It was still tasty, but I was disappointed with the appearance.

I'm not a huge fan of chocolate, but I really enjoyed this tart. The nuts and cookie crust helped to balance out the sweetness of the chocolate.
